Two Israeli soldiers were killed and another is believed to be kidnapped by Palestinian terrorists who attacked an Israeli military post at the Sufa Crossing near Kibbutz Kerem Shalom in southern Israel on Sunday morning. There were also two Palestinian casualties in the attack. Eight Popular Resistance Committee operatives entered Israel through a tunnel that had been dug over the past week and fired an anti-tank missile at the post. Hamas and Islamic Jihad are believed to have been behind the attack. Meanwhile, Israeli ground troops have entered the Gaza Strip and intend to blow up the tunnel Palestinians used to enter Israel.
